The big match up in this game will be Caps defensive prospect Karl Alzner vs. Philly’s offensive prospect Claude Giroux. Both are highly regarded and expected to challenge for roster spots with the big clubs. Look for the Caps defense and goalies to stand out in this one.
Joe’s prediction: Caps 4 PHI 2
